Star Princess is the second Sphere-class ship following Sun Princess, launched in 2024 and entering service in 2025. She extends Princess Cruises' latest design language and MedallionClass-first onboard model. The ship focuses on destination-driven itineraries while still adding modern venues, refreshed entertainment spaces, and improved suite offerings versus previous generations. For travellers who like Princess's port-first style but want newer hardware, Star Princess is a natural next step.

✦ The standout feature

A continuation of Princess's Sphere-class architecture with large glass-forward public spaces and expanded Medallion-enabled service coverage.
